In a move sure to delight whichever candidate becomes the Democratic nominee for president, Cindy McCain said today that under no circumstance will she release her tax returns – even if her husband wins the election and becomes president of the United States and she first lady. “You know, my husband and I have been married for 28
years and we have filed separate tax returns for 28 years,” she said. “This is a privacy issue. My husband is the candidate.”
Democratic Party Chairman Howard Dean disagrees. "Throughout this campaign, he has acted like his own calls for openness and accountability apply to everyone but himself. Now he thinks he can bring that same double standard to the White House."
